Its a shame that the small number of eejits in the various clubs rule out a double header in the manner of GAA in Croke Park.
Rovers Bohs at 2pm followed by Shels v PAts at 4pm on St Patricks day in the Aviva stadium could be a 40k gate easily.
Would it really be impossible? i was at the MAn Utd v Liverpool match recently 60k with 11k unemployed scousers mixed in and the UK Police manage it
How would they have got on if there was thousands of Man City and Everton fans also there?Quote:

Whilst I agree with you - the issue is that the English police are very good at dealing with knobheads in football crowds, whereas our police are fairly crap at dealing with crowds full stop.Quote:

The idea of 4 rival groups of fans in the same ground would be a unique and fascinating spectacle of its own let alone the 2 matches but the gardai are miles away from being able to deal with that unfortunatelyQuote:
